Using A Foreclosure Home as a Marijuana Grow House – Not Very Smart
A Fontana, California man is accused of turning his home into a marijuana grow house after a bank examiner found the evidence during an inspection. This has to be one of the stupidest crooks of all time.
After investing a couple of hundred thousand into the home and equipment to create the grow house, going through the effort of stealing electricity, and then growing the pot, these morons fail to pay the mortgage and go into foreclosure?
The level of stupidity with this guy is unbelievable.
A bank employee stumbled upon a foreclosed house used to grow marijuana, leading to the seizure of an estimated $4.5 million in drugs in two houses and an arrest Saturday. Angel Wayhang Kou, 30, of Rancho Cucamonga was booked into jail on suspicion of cultivating marijuana, maintaining a residence for drugs, theft of utilities and conspiracy…
“They had probably well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment in both homes, between the lights, the electrical, the water, the filtering and venting systems,” Decker said. Police said Kou stole about $100,000 in electricity from Southern California Edison between the two homes by bypassing electrical boxes. Decker said Kou owned both homes, but both were in foreclosure. San Bernardino County Sun.

Hey Einstein, please get your facts straight before running your mouth off. Did you even use your pea brain for a second to wonder why someone would have 4.5 mil in drugs growing and still be going into foreclosure??? Hey! Maybe the drugs were not grown by the homeowner but someone else taking advantage of a property that is unoccupied and currently in foreclosure??? (lightbulb)

Well nameless one:
What idiot would put that big of an investment in facilities, products, and inventory into a home they did not own or control in some way the owner of the property.
That would make them even dumber than I originally assumed.
Oh, and don’t walk into traffic with your deductive reasoning skills, you are obviously not qualified.

Dear Tom,
If you never learned in grade school, you know what happens when you assume. Apparently if the property owner was rolling in that much drug inventory and money, none of the properties he owned would be going into foreclosure, now would they?
By the way, two plus two always equals four.
Don’t play judge and jury

Tom, your assumption and reasoning that the homeowner is the perpetrator makes COMPLETE sense. I totally get it!!!!
Let’s put hundreds of thousands of dollars into a drug operation and make tons of money, but not make any mortgage payments so that my pot operation can be found out. A perfect business plan!
Yes, Tom you are qualified to be judge and jury with your dumb opinions and assumptions on this news story and I am not.

Hey fellas why do you think they call it “dope”?
Nameless if you really do have proof or evidence of what has happened in this case they cough (pardon the pun) Sit up.
Why would Decker state that Angel Kou was the owner of two homes that had the pot growing operation? Maybe they had records?
In your scenario Angel either did not know or Angel knew and was a front?
If Angel’s _ss was on the line for the “hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment in each home” that was confiscated along with the drugs, the people tormenting poor Angel would have him killed.
Are you just another _sshole like an opinion willing to open up?
And nobody is stupid enough to grow in a abandoned house unless:
a. they might be related to you asdfsdf
b. they actually do want to get caught
c. they are being “forced” by a gang, mafia, or other illegal rico operation to grow or die
